Meenakshi


Chandra Masala's 'Jalwa' brand will be available at the Skin Fair! Meenakshi is the new line which features Chandra's trademark style: defined, dramatic cheeks and a strong brow. It's a beautiful skin with a very detailed face, including defined textures on the nose, cheek, and eye. My favorite feature? The super glossy lip.

Here are the details:

Eyebrows:  Black, brown, blonde, ginger [pictured], and none.
Cosmetics:  Six eye shadows and six lip shades.
Applier ready:  Jalwa skins are compatible with the popular breast implant lines, phat azz, baby bumps, and Slink avatar enhancements.
Cleavage Options:  Because some of us don't sport the mesh boobies.

Loving the Skin You're In - Erin, by League

If you're expecting to be amazed and won over by Erin, the new skin premiering at Skin Fair, then expect something bigger. When I saw that League was stepping into the Skin Fair fray for 2014 I was very excited! I've been a sporter of Jen for a long time, and I've always been drawn to Nena Janus' attention to detail. I've also always appreciated her look, which is somewhat pouty, sultry, and a bit more grown up than many skins out there. The skin reminds me a lot of Jen, but there are differences such as a more refined face, detailed cheek bones, thicker brows, and a more detailed nose.

What Erin brings to the table:

Auburn eyebrows. Yes. Auburn eyebrows. For forever I have been hoping to see a red release of the brow and possible updates to Jen and other popular skin lines. Isla was the only skin with a red-toned brow until now.
Chest de-enhancers. Instead of breasts C, D, or E there is the option to be de-enhanced as shown above.
Freckles! They exist in this new line - this time with a bit more realism.
Nail layer. Like Erin's predecessors, the glove layer is still included for those who wear prim nails. 
Pubic options. Because some girls like to sport a little hair down there. 
Makeups. Tintable lipsticks!
No brow. Skins now come with a no-brow option.
Applier ready. For hands, feet, breast implants, and phat azz. No word yet on the mesh heads with applier technology or the baby bump. 

Skin Fair opens March 14. Read more about it!
